Cool

560's have "limited-slip" differentials. Many times the wheels won't turn the same direction on a lift! BUT the question is, does the car leave 2 "black" tire strips on heavy accel?

I haved replaced many clutches on the 190E 16V differentials, but only a few on the larger differential in the 560's & 6.9's.
DOUBT if anyone but dealer can get the clutches. DID you use "factory" OE fluid? MB number 129-353-11-62 is the number for the clutches (8 required).

The clutches have a sintered brass material that requires MB special fluid.
